Get to Know Elevate™, VIZIO’s Hot New Sound Bar

An In-depth Look at the Elevate Sound Bar

The awesome, award-winning new VIZIO Elevate™ 5.1.4 Home Theater Sound Bar has a revolutionary design with Adaptive Height Speakers that automatically rotate depending on what you're watching, to give you the a fantastic listening experience, always.

Elevate includes a sleek main sound bar with rotating speakers, plus a pair of elegant surround speakers with upfiring speakers built into each, and the whole sound system is anchored by an absolute beast of a wireless subwoofer. Those Adaptive Height Speakers on either end of the sound bar rotate upward for Dolby Atmos® and DTS:X® movies, music, and video games with immersive overhead surround, blasting sound off the ceiling for thrilling, life-like 3D audio. When not needed for overhead surround, the speakers rotate back to their forward position for bigger, louder music to rock your next house party. Bonus: Those moving speakers are quite the conversation-starter, too. (#elevaterules)

Unrivaled Speaker Innovation

All told, Elevate packs 18 high-performance speakers, the Adaptive Height Speakers combining with the upfiring rear surrounds to envelop the listener inside a 360-degree dome of sound that might just blow your mind. Elevate's speakers also use separate tweeters and dual woofers, meaning more volume and bass from the sound bar, and a wider "sweet spot" that covers everyone in the room, in addition to clearer sound for all.

VIZIO's Largest Subwoofer!

Why are we shouting? Because the Elevate sound bar includes a massive 8-inch subwoofer, VIZIO's biggest and most powerful, to add earth-shaking bass to movies, games, and everything else. And the sub links to the sound bar wirelessly, assuring a clean, simple setup.

Dolby Atmos® and DTS:X®

Dolby and DTS are some of the biggest names in surround sound, and each has its own flavor of immersive overhead surround. The VIZIO Elevate sound bar handles both Dolby Atmos and DTS:X like a boss, its Adaptive Height Speakers engaging automatically as soon as the signal is detected, to provide a true cinema-quality surround experience. Different movies, music, TV shows and video games have different audio formats, and no matter what you're enjoying, Elevate will play it back in amazing quality, no guesswork needed.

How Does the VIZIO Elevate Sound Bar Sound?

You might want to hang onto something: With the Elevate sound bar, Dolby Atmos and DTS:X movies, games, and music now come alive with room-filling sound that can come at you from every angle, even from above. Instead of watching, you're truly living the action: Feel the fury of spaceships and superheroes soaring overhead as entertainment takes on a stunning realism. Elevate also lets you hear flying alien soldiers attacking from any direction in video games, even sneaky off-screen opponents.
